Zucchini Parmesan Casserole

Revised from a Zucchini Pizza Casserole recipe.

Ingredients

Crust
4 cups Shredded Zucchini ( about a foot long)
1/2 tsp Salt
2 Eggs
2 Tbsp Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup Shredded Cheese (I use marble for everything)
1 tsp Italian Seasoning

Topping
1 lb. Ground Beef
1/4 cup Dried Onion
1 jar Pasta Sauce
1 cup Frozen Veggies
1 tsp Italian seasoning
1/2 Shredded cheese

Shred the Zucchini. Mix together all of the rest of the crust ingredients. Press into a greased 9x13(I tin foil the pan then greased the tin foil) Bake the crust for 20 min at 400 degrees

While the crust cooks brown the ground beef. Add onion, pasta sauce, frozen veggies and Italian seasoning. Cook for about 5 mins until the veggies are thawed and warm. Pour over the crust and smooth out. Top with Cheese

Bake for another 20 mins or until the cheese is melted and slightly browned. Allow to sit for 2-3 mins before serving.

This recipe was amazing. I cooked a bit of noodles for the kids to have with it but I found I didn't need it. It was very watery but I don't know what I could have done to solve that problem. If you have any ideas please comment.
